A Comparison of Isolating Amplifier Architectures

چکیده
The top shows current source amplifiers used with a loop array, the bottom shows ultra-low output impedance amplifiers used with a partially decoupled rung array. The current source amplifiers provide higher levels of decoupling, but are unable to generate as much current as the ultra-low output impedance amplifiers. 7333 A Comparison of Isolating Amplifier Architectures Neal Hollingsworth, Katherine Moody, Jon-Fredrik Nielsen, Douglas Noll, Mary Preston McDougall, and Steven Wright Electrical Engineering, Texas A&M University, College Station, Texas, United States, Biomedical Engineering, Texas A&M University, College Station, Texas, United States

FPGA Implementation of a Hammerstein Based Digital Predistorter for Linearizing RF Power Amplifiers with Memory Effects
Power amplifiers (PAs) are inherently nonlinear elements and digital predistortion is a highly cost-effective approach to linearize them. Although most existing architectures assume that the PA has a memoryless nonlinearity, memory effects of the PAs in many applications ,such as wideband code-division multiple access (WCDMA) or orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM), can no longer b...
متن کاملHigh-Performance CMOS Current Mirrors: Application to Linear Voltage-to-Current Converter Used for Two-Stage Operational Amplifier
This paper presents two schemes of high performance CMOS current mirror, one of them is used for operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) in analog VLSI systems. The linearity, output impedance, bandwidth and accuracy are the most parameters to determine the performance of the current mirror. Here a comparison of two architectures based on same architecture of the amplifier is presented. Th...
متن کاملA Sub-µW Tuneable Switched-Capacitor Amplifier-Filter for Neural Recording Using a Class-C Inverter
A two stage sub-µW Inverter-based switched-capacitor amplifier-filter is presented which is capable of amplifying both spikes and local field potentials (LFP) signals. Here we employ a switched capacitor technique for frequency tuning and reducing of 1/f noise of two stages. The reduction of power consumption is very necessary for neural recording devices however, in switched capacitor (SC) cir...
متن کاملLayout Design of Switching-Mode Amplifier for LTE Applications
The layout design of hysteresis controlled switching-mode amplifier for fourth generation Long-Term Evolution (4G LTE) applications is presented in this paper. Those circuits are used in envelope amplifiers (EAs) architectures, which supply voltage to the transmitter’s power amplifier (PA). The proper layout design can help to improve the overall efficiency of EA, because most of the energy del...
متن کاملNoise Analysis of Radiation Detector Charge Sensitive Amplifier Architectures
In this work, a detailed comparison of four equivalent charge-sensitive, folded-cascode amplifiers in terms of noise performance is presented. A couple of complementary structures, one with a noise-optimised input nMOSFET and the other with a noise-optimised input pMOSFET were designed in 0.35 μm CMOS process by Austria MicroSystems (AMS). Another couple of complementary structures consisting o...
